Manchester United won 1-0. In the first half of the extra time, Scott McTomini won a difficult victory thanks to the scoring.

Lingard decided to rent a six-month lease from the winter transfer market to West Ham. He was determined to improve his performance through rental while being treated outside of his power. The plan hit. On the 4th, he led the team to victory by scoring multi-goals in the first match in the West Ham uniform.

The next match was Manchester United, the home team meeting in the FA Cup. Fans were also interested in whether or not Lingard would be able to perform a unique ceremony against Manchester United after he broke the goal. However, he was unable to compete in United.

There are two reasons. Usually, clubs that are on loan from the Premier League insert a clause stating that the player cannot compete in the original team. FA Cup rules also made it impossible for Lingard to compete in Manchester United. According to the rules, a player cannot compete in the FA Cup with two teams per season. Lingard was already wearing a Manchester United uniform in January and played Watford in the third round of the FA Cup.
